MAP Testing
Our class will be taking the MAP reading test on Monday and math test on Thursday. Students have set goals for improving their scores. Eating a healthy breakfast and getting a good night's sleep will help them do their best!
TGFD Graduation Highlights
Thank you to all the parents who were able to attend the graduation ceremony. I truly hope the students put into action the strategies they learned during this valuable program. It was inspiring to hear Mrs. Kotovsky, Deputy K's wife, share some of her personal experiences in life as she emphasized the importance of educating children about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. We also enjoyed hearing one of our own classmates share his "promise letter." Great job, Adam!
